Ari Shapiro is back! And with Audie Cornish as co-host! Enjoyed hearing their voices and banter. Audie, you outed yourself about not reading Ari’s book with your comment about the Radical Fairies😂

Apple Podcasts5Faust1973United States17 days ago - Not enough liberal perspectives
This podcast will have people from the far right discuss their nonsense religious views but wont hear anyones perspective whose more than a little left of center.
Also just get a witch to talk to if you want to learn about witchcraft rather than have a guy who went to a pagan event give his opinion of us from the outside.
